Overview

Operator Type: Society lottery operator

Postcode Justice Trust is a Scottish charitable trust that operates a society lottery under licence from the Gambling Commission. Incorporated in Edinburgh in February 2013 and granted its first UKGC licence in May of the same year, it's been continuously licensed for nearly 13 years without interruption. That's an unusually consistent track record for a small charitable operator.

Its trust grade of B reflects solid fundamentals across licensing and corporate standing, offset by the absence of any online presence or Trustpilot data. All four current directors are UK-based, the company is registered in Scotland, and Postcode Justice Trust has no parent company or offshore structure, which is why it achieves a perfect domestic score of 100.

The operator has no enforcement history with the UKGC, which contributes to a clean stability score of 100. For a lottery operator of this type, transparency around good causes and fund distribution would be the natural next step to lift its overall trust grade further.
